MS to unveil new Xbox Controllers @ E3

[bahn]

In response to the overwhelming demand for diversity and color, Microsoft has responded with a new lineup of Xbox S controllers scheduled to be unveiled May 14 at E3.

The controllers will be available in blue and the green (the same color which was once previously available only to attendees of the Xbox E3 Press Conference last year!)

"Gamers have been asking us for new color options, so we thought it would be a great idea to not only give the people what they want, but also let them choose the colors for themselves," said Bill Nielsen, director of Xbox brand marketing. "When the results were tabulated green and blue were far and away the favorites so we’ll release both those options. We anticipate many gamers will have a tough time deciding between the two."

The new controllers will go on sale this October for $29.99 and join the existing black Xbox S controller. These vivid styles are sure to be a instant hit among existing Xbox fans! Now if only we could get a specialized fighting pad...

I liked the clear and orange better.

I saw something like this in either OXM or EGM. Should be nice to have more controller color variety.

Pretty.

I might pick one up and give away my crappy third party pad.

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

Hah, the jokes never get old.
